it was very nice experience, host is very good, house is very nice, everything thing is perfect, we enjoyed our trip in dells , this experience memorable.
This fit our large party well with the kids and adults. Centrally located to castle rock lake and sand shores tubing and had everything we needed to do what we set out to do Cooking and kitchen had everything we needed
It's a beautiful home far enough out in the country to be private. Close enough to Mauston and the Dells for our group to adventure and meet back together. Plenty of room for all 17 of us.
This was our 3rd time here, spending time with all our kids and grandkids! This place is awesome, especially if you have children. The kids ranged from 5 to 15, 7 of them. They had a blast! There was plenty of space for us, indoors and outside. Highly recommend!

Karen, I am so glad your group had a great stay at the farmhouse, you are welcome back anytime!
The farmhouse is a beautifully kept property! My and my friend's family both enjoyed staying here for 5 nights. We especially loved the garage and all the games. Communication with our host was super fast and easy. Highly recommend!
Our group has stayed many times and love coming back here. This home is perfectly set up for groups. Already looking forward to our next stay!

About the host
Hosted by Leo and Katie
Leo and Katie have been married for 35 years and have 2 kids, a son Kyle and a daughter Michelle. They own and operate their own business together, recently celebrating 33 years in business. Leo was born and raised in Mauston, WI while Katie was born and raised in the neighboring town of WI Dells. They continue to live and work in Mauston. (just down the road from the rental)
Why they chose this property
The farm house has been in Leo's family since the early 1970's. Owned by his parents, this was a family run farm with everyone pitching in. Leo and Katie purchased the house in 2014 and decided to renovate the house and rent it out so everyone could enjoy the beautiful country setting and experience all this area has to offer. We hope you enjoy your stay and come to love the area as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
Close to lots of attractions and activities yet in a quiet country setting. Go to the lake or the Dells for the day and then come back and enjoy the peace and quite of this beautiful home.
